Famous Canadian Singer, Celine Dion has slammed Donald Trump for using her song at his presidential campaign.
The classic, ‘My Heart Will Go On’, which featured in a 1997 film about the doomed ship Titanic, was used at Trump’s/JD Vance rally in Montana.
In a statement released on X, Dion’s team said “Today, Celine Dion’s management team and her record label Sony Music Entertainment Canada Inc, became aware of the unauthorized usage of the video, recording, musical performance, and likeness of Celine Dion singing My Heart Will Go On at a Donald Trump/JD Vance campaign rally in Montana.”
“In no way is this use authorized, and Celine Dion does not endorse this or any similar use.
“…And really, THAT song?”
My Heart Will Go On is one of five-time Grammy winner Dion’s most popular songs.
This comes after Dion’s memorable return to live performance last month when she closed the opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics. Last year, Dion announced she has been diagnosed with Stiff Person Syndrome (SPS).
Several artists have criticized Trump for using their songs in the past. In 2020, the Rolling Stones threatened him with legal action after the song You Can’t Always Get What You Want was played at a political rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
Ozzy and Sharon Osbourne sent a notice to Mr. Trump banning him from using Black Sabbath music in his campaign videos.
Earlier this year, Smiths guitarist Johnny Marr also requested that Trump desist from using the group’s songs after Please, Please, Please, Let Me Get What I Want was played at a rally.
